Fairlynew Posted August 2, 2019 Report Posted August 2, 2019 We have no plans for this port-mainly planning a lazy beach day. I've seen some good reviews of this place. Has anyone been? Thoughts? Harmony will be the only ship in port. I see that you can reserve a beach chair in advance. Is that necessary? Thanks. Quote
KricketB73 Posted August 2, 2019 Report Posted August 2, 2019 We will be cruising to St Maarten in a couple weeks and I had a friend who just went there give me advice on this. She said to not book any excursions for this port. Instead when you get to the beach you will be approached by many people trying to "sell" you beach chairs. She stated the further down the beach you go, the cheaper this gets. She said she got a deal mid-beach for 2 beach chairs, a bucket of beer, 2 drinks, and access to the restaurants restrooms for $20 total. This is what we will be doing ChessE4 and Deedeelynn 2 Quote
Fairlynew Posted August 2, 2019 Author Report Posted August 2, 2019 Thanks. Lazy Lizard is that price. It may be the same place. Quote

Fairlynew Posted August 3, 2019 Author Report Posted August 3, 2019 Perhaps we should arrange a meet. I am traveling with a good friend while hubby enjoys a bucket list golf trip KricketB73 1 Quote
Meloncollie01 Posted August 5, 2019 Report Posted August 5, 2019 We'll be on the Harmony 8/11 as well. Thanks for the heads up about the beach chairs in Saint Maarten. If you see anyone wearing any Iowa State gear there is a good chance it will be someone in our group (4 person group, all cyclone fans). I am soooo ready for this week to be done so it is time to cruise! Fairlynew and KricketB73 2 Quote

KathyC Posted August 14, 2019 Report Posted August 14, 2019 Totally off topic here, but my father and his family are from Ames. I was there once or twice as a little girl, when my grandmother was alive. Don't see Ames mentioned often! Quote
